The reaction mechanism for tripropylamine involves the formation of picolinic acid from 3-hydroxypropionic acid and ammonia, followed by decarboxylation to form picolinic acid.

Tripropylamine (TPA) is a tertiary amine which belongs to the class of trialkylamines. 
Main application for Tripropylamine are the production of quats (phase transfer catalyst) and is used as proton scavenger or as molecular template in the production of catalysts.

The Tripropylamine molecule consists of 21 Hydrogen atom(s), 9 Carbon atom(s), and 1 Nitrogen atom(s) - a total of 31 atom(s). 
The molecular weight of Tripropylamine is determined by the sum of the atomic weights of each constituent element multiplied by the number of atoms, which is calculated to be:

143.26974⋅gmol

The exact term of the above molecular weight is “molar mass”, which is based on the atomic mass of each element. 
Molecular weight is actually an older term of “relative molar mass” or “molecular mass”, which is a dimensionless quantity equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant defined by 1 g/mol.

Molecular masses are calculated from the standard atomic weights of each nuclide, while molar masses are calculated from the atomic mass of each element. 
The atomic mass takes into account the isotopic distribution of the element in a given sample.


Tripropylamine (according to IUPAC nomenclature : N,N -dipropylpropan-1-amine , also tri -n -propylamine) is an organic chemical compound from the group of tertiary aliphatic amines .

The large-scale production of tripropylamine follows a two-stage process. First, n -propanol is reacted with ammonia in the gas phase over a copper- or nickel-containing heterogeneous catalyst at temperatures of 130 to 250 °C and pressures generally of 1 to 220 bar to form a product mixture of mono- , di- and tripropylamine. 

In the next step, this is separated by multi-stage distillation and the tri- n -propylamine that has already formed is removed. 
The remaining di -n -propylamine is then converted in a second reactor, on a copper or nickel catalyst supported with aluminum and zirconium(IV) oxide, at temperatures of 200 to 260 °C and pressures of 60 to 150 bar to tri -n -propylamine and ammonia. 
Unreacted n -propanol, ammonia and monopropylamine are returned to the first reaction stage. 

The reactors used are usually tube bundle reactors with a circulating gas flow and a fixed bed, in which molten salts keep the reaction at an almost constant temperature.
